Renting vs Buying

Still on the fence about purchasing your first home?
We’ll list some of the best reasons to become a homeowner

Why you need to become a Homeowner sooner than later!

1. Homes build equity, rental payments do not
2. A home is both an investment and a living space
3. The interest that you pay on your mortgage is tax deductible
4. The house is yours to modify in any way you see fit
5. You can use your home’s equity in many different ways

Of course, it is important to consider your financial situation and other life factors when deciding to buy a home. You must have the money for a down payment if you don’t qualify for Down Payment Assistance and closing costs. Maintaining a home is also a big commitment, but still well worth it. Remember, there is a huge benefit to owning a home rather than renting. There’s easy money to be made, just by making your house payment! 

In the Seattle and Suburbs of Western WA, homeowners have been reaping the rewards of an increase in value even double, triple, or more since they first purchased! 

Many homeowners have been able to use their equity to pay off debt, buy new vehicles, or even upgrade into a bigger, better home… basically for free!  There are so many benefits in homeownership, it’s no wonder why so many investors are pulling out of the stock market and putting it into Real Estate.

Purchasing a home whether it be your first, or your 5th, is still one of the most exciting milestones in your life. Owning a home is still truly the American Dream.
